I'm gifting my old hackintosh to my wife. It works well, and is faster than her old Core2Duo hackintosh. It does have network problems that I never got around to solving: sometimes multicast just stops working (which essentially breaks file sharing and printing on the network), and more annoyingly, if a lot of data is uploaded, the machine eventually freezes up with warnings about some network queue overflowing. Reboot is the only recovery in that scenario.
This is using the built-in Realtek device and the linux2mac driver.
I'd like to throw another card in there, but don't want to run into the same realtek problems. Any affordable/tested Intel cards? Or any Realtek or other off-brand that you'd bet your life on?
